Gandalf - Sanctuary (2009)/ Instrumental

Порой ты чувствуешь, что потерялся, блуждая в лабиринте чувств и мыслей, в унынье от невежества других, и выхода тут нет... ... он есть всегда, ведь самый темный лес не безграничен, как только ты поймешь куда в действительности хочешь сам попасть.

Все альбомы Gandalf'а обладают одним ярким качеством - визуальностью, способностью чуть ли не против воли создавать в сознании красочные картины.

"We all long for some kind of protected zone in our lives, a place to withdraw from the noise and craziness in the world, a refuge of balance and peace. Some find it in the silence of a forest, in the remoteness of mountains or the rolling waves by the seaside. Some find it in sacred places, praying or practicing meditation.
All my life, besides having a very close relationship with nature, playing or just listening to real music has been a never-ending source of joy and inspiration and also a way to find comfort and peace whenever I was in trouble, like passing a gate into a hidden sanctuary."
Gandalf, January 2009
